![]() On 29 Nov 2005 14:48:38 -0800, "george" wrote in .com:: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/section/st...ectid=10357510 "Airlines are temporary guardians of unaccompanied minors so we have preferred seating for them." Ms Paul said Air New Zealand tried to seat children near a crew area so crew could keep an eye on them and, when possible, children were seated next to an empty seat. "Sometimes this isn't possible, so the preference is to seat a female passenger next door to an unaccompanied minor." When the Herald asked her if the airline considered male passengers to be dangerous to children, Ms Paul replied: "That's not what I said." Perhaps the Air New Zealand policy concerning male passengers was an attempt to shield ANZ from accusations of discrimination against Catholic priests. :-) |

It was the airlines problem as they booked the pax into that seat and put the kid next to them... Some-one suggested packing crates in the unpressurised cargo to solve the problem |

The inuendo is that all males flying on Air New Zealand and Qantas are kiddie fiddlers. They should have dragged a female out of the $10,000 seat to sit with the kid in cattle class? I agree... |

That's because the flight attendent doesn't pass out sheep to the male passengers. |
